until I posted the notice, I had every intention of expanding to 1000'. move a few sensors and move the last power jumper and it would have been done. criticize my lack of getting my things done in a reasonable time (2 years?). but, when I measured again to the finish line and then measured to shut down area I had to admit I didn't think it through, nor research properly what I had available. 3' of shut down is not adequate to me and therefore I had to change my mind. my intention was NEVER TO DECIEVE ANYONE FOR ANY Purpose. I apologize for my lack of foresight and lack of getting this done sooner. anyone who wishes to retract their car may do so and I will pay return mailing costs. I just want to have fun and provide a place for others to have fun as well. it seems I have failed you all at this menial endeavor. I am Sorry

AL,
I'm there so run mine, like I said it will be interesting to see how it does on a short track with a long track setup, hopefully ok.
Thanks

It’s probably best that Al is acting on the side of caution. At a recent non NS event, you could hear the cars thud against the wall because the shutdown was too short.
My track has 8’ of dynamic braking after the finish sensors and some of the cars sent for the race were using every bit of it.
All of our cars are set up for 1000’, so we’ll all be equally disadvantaged.
Let’s make the best of it and go racing!

I'd rather run on the longer shut down. My cars are set up for 1000ft ,but I was thinking like Bill I think everyone's are so run with it.
It's a mistake Al no big deal. We're all still on the same playing feild with the same disadvantage. Even. No biggie run the cars.
Honestly I'm just glad to see you and your track back in action.
You passed on to me summer slam, so you having a race at all is a big deal to me. I'm still pumped as usual...let's see a picture lol.

I have been delayed by real life occurrences for most of last night and most of today. I will be getting down to business real soon.
